Product description
Digital temperature and humidity sensor DHT22 / AM2302 / RHT03. The sensor uses a capacitive humidity sensor and a thermistor to measure the ambient humidity and temperature. Measurement data is transmitted digitally via a separate data line. The sensor has three connection wires for supply voltage, data, and ground. A 5.1 kΩ pull-up resistor between VCC and DATA is required (not included). The maximum update rate is 0.5 Hz, corresponding to one new measurement every two seconds.
